Neville Johnson was born in Sunderland, England to God-fearing parents who worked with Pastors George and Stephen Jeffreys in the early evangelistic healing movement in Britain. His grandfather was a preacher in the Welsh revival. Neville Johnson was born again in the Pentecostal church Hebron Tabernacle in Sunderland when he was 12 years old and felt a call to ministry at the age of 14. His family moved to New Zealand while he was still a child, and in the 1960s, Neville and his wife Jo and two young children worked on the mission fields in the South Pacific. Neville was greatly influenced by the personal mentoring of (Walter Beuttler ) who became his spiritual father. Neville was also inspired greatly by the teaching of (TL Osborn ) in missions work and became a personal friend. For most of the 1970s his church was the largest Pentecostal church in Australasia (). He currently runs The (Living Word Foundation ) from Australia. ==Early years== From 1968 until December 1970 Neville and Josie Johnson served as missionaries in New Caledonia. It was then that they returned to New Zealand taking over the leadership of the Auckland Assembly following on from Bob and Noelle Midgley, a church which had entered a period of significant growth.〔(Alphacrucis Journal )〕〔p133 Clark〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neville Johnson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
